WAN Load Balancing with FritzBox doesn't work
I curently have a FVS336Gv3 with a WAN2 connection to a Fritzbox 6490 Cable with static public IP adresses. LAN Port 1 on the FritzBox is connected to WAN2 on the FVS336Gv3. Iconfigure the with a static public IP from my public range and use the (public) IP of the Fritzbox as Gateway. That works from day 1. Now I connected a second Fritzbox 7560 connected to a 1&1 DSL. I connect the LAN Port 1 from the Fritzbox the same way bt to WAN1 on the FCS336Gv3. I configure a static IP address (private) out of the FritzBox range (192.168.178.1/24) and use the FritzBox (private) IP as the Gatewy, Btw. this doesn't work. WAN 1 interface is down and in the WAN overview page this interface has noc IP address and state is down. I found several articles for older Fritzbox configuration where I have to configure PPPoe to use the Fritzbox as a DSL modem only. But multiple PPPoe connection is not supported by the ISP 1&1. Can anyone explain why this configuration isn't working?
